Police said it seems Wallace became unconscious behind the wheel. When she did, her foot pressed the accelerator, sending the car right into the lake. Investigators said they were trying to determine if Wallace had a medical episode, or if alcohol or drugs were involved.

An update Monday morning said their preliminary investigation revealed it was likely that Wallace did in fact have a medical issue while behind the wheel.

Largo Police Lieutenant Stephen Slaughter said the car drove south on Alternate Keen Road, across the media of East Bay Drive, hit a guardrail and then went into the lake.
